EXPERIMENT WITH RoBuRITE-FIG. :,

In order TO obtain M idea of the explosive
effectiveness of roburitc eight ounces of the
explosive We're placed on n plate of the very
best steel, ut the point marked A in Fig. !,
which shows the state of the plate after the
explosion This plate was 3 feet square by
!, inch thick, and bulge Of about l foot
diameter and3ll inches deep was caused by the
explosion Twelve ounces Of the explosive
were then placed at A Zig. p on n cast iron
plate, q inches thick, and weighing nearly
three tons After the explosion the plate was
found to Ike broken transvcrsely, in the
manner shown in the engraving. Unlike
dynamite, roburite is said to he i'll no way af-
fected by varying temperatures, and If duly
protected against damp, it may he kept for
years in any climate, without its efficiency
becoming III any way impaired. Ii is also
claimed by the manu- facturers that roburite
has an explosive force greater than dynamite
by Mt least - per cent.
In exploding roburite does not produce
noxious gases, and, therefore, may be used
without intermsson, while the poisonous
gases given Off by dynamite often neceSsitate
the stoppage of work, in some cases for IA CON
siderable time. This new explosive is APP
plicable for use in mines and quarrcs, and
for torpedoes and blasting operations gen
